¥ 1:54- 9:29
Nice view from Washington Square (we see the arc in front of us). A double decker bus passes, and an older man dressed in a light suit and hat walks towards and then into the frame.

¥ 1:27:70- 1:47:60
Nice series of shots of a couple and an older man standing by fancy gardens (Central Park-?) which cuts to image of the same couple with an older woman. They all wear their Sunday best. They smile and walk towards the camera. Perhaps they are going to a wedding-?

¥ 2:48:39- 3:21:55
Nice montage of Coney Island in the spring of 1944. first, we view (shakily) the extremely crowded board walk, a roller coaster, and a sign for Oriole Baths. The same old man in earlier shots walks into the frame. Cut to a view of one side of the board walk (dense with people and businesses) and part of the beach. Cut to several shots of the beach which looks as though it is becoming crowded. In the best of these shots, we view four young women on towelsÑone turns and looks at the camera, and there's an immediate cut.

¥ 4:44:02- 4:55:12
Nice view of the ferris wheel as it goes backwardsÑevery seat is occupied. We can see the tops of people's heads as they walk by the camera. Cut to a slightly different view.

worth noting: Nice short images of crowd on the boardwalkÑmany sailors.

¥ 5:32:04- 5:56:24
Amazing series of images of New York City after a snow storm. Start with image of a bus on E. 10th Street (camera pans by street sign) which looks stuck in the snow. Several people walk by it. Cut to view of an East Village block blanketed by snow. Parked cars are barely visible. Cut to the top of an apartment's entrance covering.

worth noting: Nice image of Broadway facing Union Square under snow. People walk along the sidewalks. (6:47:25)

¥ 6:57:75- 7:19:03
Excellent series of shots from an apartment window of people below in the snow. First, we view two children trying to pull their sled out from under a snowy corner. Next is a great shot of a man pulling his child on a sled down the middle of the street. And finally an interesting view of the snowy street signs visible from the camera person's windowÑ10th and University.

worth noting: Many nice, shaky images of an affluent neighborhood under many feet of snow. A boy shoveling, a woman trying to dig a car out....

¥ 9:58:53- 10:20:15
Series of great shots of children playing in the snow in Central Park (?). They make snowballs and sled (adults pull the sleds).
